Reef Chemistry Question of the Day #251
The salinity of seawater can be determined by measuring a wide range of properties. From a table of how these properties change with salinity, the salinity can be determined.
Which of the following possible ways to measure salinity cannot work?
List all that you think cannot work
A. Electrical conductivity at a particular AC frequency
B. Speed of sound at a particular frequency
C. Speed of yellow light
D. Absorption of yellow light
E. Density at 30 degrees C
F. Boiling point at 1 atmosphere pressure
G. Freezing point
H. Viscosity at 30 degrees C
Good luck!
